Korbielów is primarily a winter tourist resort and a skiing center on the slopes of Pilsko. Another attraction is the Fero Stable of Hucul ponies, which offers a full range of services from horse riding lessons to breeding and selling the extremely intelligent and calm Hucul ponies. Beautiful landscapes of the Beskid Mountains encourage practicing mountain horse riding and hiking - a short or a multi-day horse ride.

Korbielów is best known to all lovers of skiing, but it also attracts horse riding fans. The „Połonina” Stable is another place where you can ride on calm and tough Hucul ponies. The offer includes horse riding lessons, riding in the countryside for advanced riders and romantic summer carriage rides, sleigh rides in the winter, as well as "holiday in the saddle." It also organizes horse riding on the trails of the Beskid Mountains.

The Glinne Pass is located in the border ridge of the
Beskid Mountains and separates the mountain group
of Pilsko (in the west) from the Babiogórski Range (in
the east). From the mid-nineteenth century to 2007,
the Pass served as an important crossing point on the
route, linking first Galicia with Hungary, then Poland
with Slovakia. Tourists usually go past the Pass, while
hiking along the Kazimierz Sosnowski Main Beskid
Trail.

The waterfall in Wielka Sopotnia is the
highest waterfall in the Beskids, as well as in
the Silesian province. It measures 12 meters
in height and is considered a natural
monument. It is located in the center of the
village, on the creek that bears the same
name as the village. The attractive
surroundings offer relaxation, and several
hiking trails start from the village. They run
to some very interesting places in the
Beskids.

The Żywiec Beskid became a tourist destination in earnest a century ago. Polish and German tourists were very quick to recognize the advantages of the high mountain of Pilsko (1557 m above sea level) and the Miziowa Mountain Pasture located on the northern slopes (about 1300 m). Nowadays, they are the most popular hiking, Cycling and skiing destinations. From the mountain we can admire a vast panorama and stay in a comfortable chalet.
